County to train at St George's

Notts County have reached an agreement with St George's Park National Football Centre that will see Keith Curle's squad train there over the next 12 months.

The facility includes a full-sized indoor third generation football pitch, a 60m x 40m multi-purpose indoor sports hall, 11 full size outdoor pitches and one elite DESSO training pitch, which is an exact replica of Wembley. The side will still have access to the Highfields training facility, which will be used the day before matches and when England are preparing for an international fixture. Magpies boss Curle said: "It's a fantastic, consistent training surface for us to play on, a professional environment and it's absolutely unbelievable that we're able to come here."
